Hi Serena,

May I have a bridge, please? I'll give you the points of the translation

CC: Efylove

A fly sits on a cart and rebuking a mule [feminine] says: "How slow are you! Don't you want to move faster? Be careful that I don't sting you with my sting". The mule answers: "I'm not moved by your words; I fear the driver sitting on the front saddle, who regulates my back with a slow staff and holds down my mouth with a foaming bit. So leave this useless arrogance; in fact I know when it is necessary to linger and when to run." He, who moves vain threats without bravery, can make fun of this tale.

Don't want the point, don't worry.
Sorry for the delay.

This philosophic poetry from Phedre (Greek philosopher) has inspired the poetry from Jean de la Fontaine, "le coche et la mouche"
